Proverbs 10:22

Money and wealthWorkGod's faithfulness

20 The tongue of the righteous is choice silver, but the heart of the wicked has little worth.

21 The lips of the righteous feed many, but fools die for lack of judgment.

The blessing of the LORD enriches, and He adds no sorrow to it.

23 The fool delights in shameful conduct, but a man of understanding has wisdom.

24 What the wicked man dreads will overtake him, but the desire of the righteous will be granted.
